¹ Same-store sales include sales from stores that have been open at least one full year at the beginning of the year. Fiscal year 2012 includes an extra week (the 53^rd week) in the fourth quarter as a result of our 4-5-4 retail reporting calendar. The 53^rd week is not included in same-store sales calculations. We also include sales from our Nordstrom online store in same-store sales because of the integration of our Nordstrom full-line stores and online store as well as HauteLook beginning in 2013.

² Gross profit is calculated as net sales less cost of sales and related buying and occupancy costs (for all segments).
